<p>I was surprised, when re-listening to the RCA/Deccas, at how well
Bunk could pop out a swing riff in the ensembles.</p>

also interesting that in his recordings with the New
York band Bunk worked very successfully with East
Coast Musicians who had been through the business of
jazz through the 1920s and 1930s, professionals very
different from the George Lewis and Jim Robinson
mould. <br>

<div>According to the various accounts I've read, Bunk hated
that Jim Robinson-George Lewis band. The band became much
better when Bunk was replaced by Kid Howard.<br>
</div>
<div>Bunk was a much better schooled musician than Robinson
and Lewis, and his work with other musicians was much
better than those widely acclaimed American Music
recordings (according to Barry Martyn of GHB, the original
American Music Bunk Johnson records were pressed at a
slightly wrong speed, preserved in all reissues prior to
the renincarnated American Musi CDs, which might partly,
or even wholly, account for the inferior sound of the
band). To me, the best Bunk is the "Spicy Advice"
session, but he made wonderful recordings on the West
Coast, both with such black musicians as Kid Ory and Wade
Whaley.<br>
